Anti-Semitic group plans armed march in small Montana town
Neo-Nazis escalate their harassment campaign against Jews in the hometown of a white supremacist leaders mother.
The Daily Stormer, a popular American neo-Nazi website, is organizing an armed march in Whitefish, Montana, home of white nationalist leader Richard Spencers mother.
In a recent blog post that features Hilters face as its banner image, Andrew Anglin, publisher of the white supremacist website, announced hes planning an armed march in the town for the second week of January days before President-elect Donald Trumps inauguration.
Montana has extremely liberal open carry laws, so my lawyer is telling me we can easily march through the center of the town carrying high-powered rifles, Anglin wrote, adding that he plans to be there personally. Currently, my guys say we are going to be able to put together about 200 people to participate in the march, which will be against Jews, Jewish businesses and everyone who supports either. We will be busing in skinheads from the Bay Area.
Anglin has organized a harassment campaign against Jews in Whitefish because a building owned by Spencers mother has been targeted for protests by people upset by her sons hateful views, which were on full display last month during a white nationalist conference in Washington, D.C. During his speech at the conference, Spencer made a Nazi salute and yelled, Hail Trump, hail our people, hail victory!

We can march through town carrying high-powered rifles: Neo-Nazi plans march against Montana Jews
Ramping up their attacks on the a Montana town where white supremacist Richard Spencer lives part of the year, neo-Nazis are planning an armed march down main street in January, reports Fox-Montana.
The small town of Whitefish has become a hub of turmoil with the rise of Spencer whose mother owns a business in the downtown district. While Sherry Spencer doesnt share his sons white separatist beliefs, she has been taking heat and facing financial setbacks from locals because she allows him to use her address as the headquarters for his deceptively named National Policy Institute.
-----
We have to stand up to these people, and we have to force an apology, The Forward reports Anglin wrote. This will be an absolutely massive victory for our cause. We have never done this before.
According to local police, they have received no information on the march which is tentatively scheduled for the second week in January.

Ever the busy white nationalist, Anglin recently threw a tantrum after athletic shoe company New Balance ignored his entreaties to become the official shoes of White people. Anglin blamed earlier reports that New Balance was catering to the Donald Trump crowd on the lying Jewish media.

In the comments section of that local article I saw one that read 'let em come, I can carry a gun to their little march too. I'm old and have little to lose'
If they bus a bunch of skinheads in here, trust me, we will give them what they deserve.

(53,921 posts)If they play there cards right and use certain verbiage, they may even people to attract a few more to their ranks, or at least keep certain people from saying shit about their anti-Semitism.
If you protest them, stay safe!!! These people are deranged and should not be taken lightly. Though usually they are fucking sad and pathetic cowards, there are more than a few who are evil to the fucking core!

These filth are the lowest form of traitors and sub-terranian waste. The very least I can do is go hold a sign and tell them so to their face.
If they are as stupid enough to show up here, the maggots they have bussed in here will be humiliated to find a rather massive showing of locals who will promptly tell them to take their rotting, filthy Nazi asses back to whatever sewers they came from and then go straight to hell.

(53,921 posts)My grandfathers were both WWII vets, one was Jewish. They are surely rolling over in their graves at this travesty.
The thing is these people are more emboldened than ever! I remember reading about the march through Skokie, IL. They may start small, a place like this one, but expand out as they start to feel their power again. There are more people like this than many are willing to admit. And, for ever Nazi, there are at least 10 who won't say a damn thing about them or their hateful message.
Thankfully, there are some who will speak out, but I wonder if it will be enough. I will say it again, if this happens, take care to be safe! These people are not rational.

(18,619 posts)Predictably there are very few Jewish residents in Whitefish (pop 6500). The entire county of Flathead lists only one congregation of about 150 adherents with most living elsewhere than the one horse town of Whitefish.
These cowards just want the media attention and notoriety that comes from carrying assault rifles through a small town. I hope they get none so they can go home and practice their goose-stepping and salutes in front of the mirror.

(90,562 posts)The scum can imagine themselves as wolves culling a small herd of deer or some sick fantasy like that. Why would they risk their precious hides by going up against a large population of Jews in a major city where diversity is valued and more people would be likely to come to the aid of the Jews and fewer would support the Neo-Nazi filth?
These plans -- just the plans, never mind the actual thing being done -- are the very essence of terrorism.
I'm glad my husband's parents aren't alive to read about this. They lived to a ripe old age in the US, but not before the German Nazis had a go at exterminating them along with nearly their entire extended families.

A bunch of bussed-in Bay-Area skinheads in a January Montana winter, on the streets of a boutique, ski-resort mountain town? Bring it. We'll give them what they deserve here.

(28,317 posts)in the dead of January - without being told right proper to fuck off everywhere they tried to go.
First of all, a little scene from today outside my window.
BRING YOUR WINTER COATS BOYS.
Second of all - let's not forget that the reason these cretins are mad at the town of Whitefish to begin with is that the vast majority of the town has very quietly boycotted Sherry Spencer, Richard's mommy, because she has continued to provide aid, comfort and office space to her little Nazi son all while lying her ass off about it.
Since the majority of the town and the area is neither Jewish nor directly involved with Love Lives Here, this shows us that the majority of the town and area supports them, as they have avoided doing business with a white supremacist and his enabler mommy. Enough of the community has shunned her that she has now said she will be forced to sell her building.
Montanans anywhere might be expected to take a busload of imported California skinheads rather poorly. You can multiply that by some unknown but very sizeable factor when we are already quite fed up with these fuckwits to begin with, and it is well-known here that they were posting photos of our local children with a "Juden" star as well as personal info and how to find them.

(18,619 posts)It's great to hear that they won't be welcomed. I'd like to think the majority of even the smallest of towns shun these people.
Be keep yourself safe though, they know that violence breeds TV news cameras and that's the ultimate goal of such provocateurs.

(53,921 posts)It is a show of power. Like any bully, they start with the weakest, then gain allies, and move onto bigger targets. Jews make the perfect target. Too many, including some of our own people (Jews), don't see us as "real" minorities, and certainly not worthy of protection. If this happens, and it doesn't end in bloodshed, I won't be the least bit surprised to see bigger marches in places with many more Jews. There are those who love to remind us of our place, from telling us "anti-Semitism isn't as big a problem as other issues, and not worthy of discussion, though it is bad" to those who redefine anti-Semitism to include "Semites" and therefore can make Jews out to be the aggressor toward other people and deserving of any violence directed against us, no matter our national origin, and of course, the classic ones, who sputter on about lack of loyalty to the US.
Yeah, this is going to be interesting, even if it doesn't happen. They are simply make a "shot across the bow" and letting us know they are still here and our very existence is not welcomed. We are quite familiar with...from all quarters.

(146,262 posts)The people of Whitefish also have the right to bear arms, and the city is full of firearms owners. I suggest they do so, and line the streets with good people who are as well-armed as those Nazis. Show them that they cannot intimidate an entire town in that way.
If I were there, I'd be out trying to organize such a thing. I hope someone there does exactly that.
